IIRC, Nats filled up in the first week.

I'm registering first thing when it comes out, If I need to cancel I'll cancel. I'm going to reserve a hotel room soon.
It definitely didn't fill up until at least April. The first day, 400 people signed up but it was slow from there. You're probably thinking of worlds. Either way you should still register asap.

Yes plenty. South Dakota, Hawaii, and Alaska are some that haven't had comps yet. ND just had it's first comp in November. Some states just wouldn't compete and some would have more than one team. Just register with a team and you represent that state.

You could also have a seeding round where every team did a Bo1 to determine top 16 and do tournament style from there.

Suggestion for a future nats (even if we cant in 2018): State cup. Kind of like the nations cup, but with american states instead.
Sounds like a fun idea to me. There might be problems with some states participation though but other than that it would probably work well.

I don't see why this wouldn't be a problem. The worlds one worked well, so why not just do the same thing? Maybe do top 32 or something teams based on adding up official averages, and then seed based on that.

Top 32 would make sense, but I would say each state can only get one unless there is not enough states, and then ranking can find the last ones

I do not know if it is to early to ask this or not but does anyone know if there are going to be any kind of unofficial events during US Nationals? and if so what kind of events?

I know about the different kind of events that they have had the last few years, so I would think that they are going to do something this year, but I figured that I would ask. Thank you very much in advance.
